Google Meet

Google Meet is a video conferencing application that facilitates live meetings with the ability to share your video, desktop, and presentations with attendees. It is one of our core programs that can be used for synchronous or asynchronous (recorded) learning.

This video explains how to setup a Google Meet with your students through Google Classroom. This is the preferred method for setting up Google Meets because you can turn on and off the meeting link so students are only in the meet when you are available.

This video explains 3 different ways that you can still see students while presenting as follows:

1. Option #1: Attach a 2nd Monitor to your Device. Starts at :54 in the video.

2. Option #2: Login to Meet a 2nd time with a Different Device. Starts at 3:30 in the video.

3. Option #3: When you only have one device, you can Overlay Your Presentation and Meet Windows. Starts at 5:23 in the video.

FAQs

1. Why is the Grid View Extension not working?

There have been multiple times when the Grid View Extension, which is not supported by Google, failed to work or caused problems while in a Google Meet (e.g., sessions crashing). As a result, we are not recommending the use of this extension. Google has increased the layouts available so that you can see the majority of students (e.g., by choosing the tiled layout).
